Memphis, Tennessee
natives Chris George and Dr. William George are excited to bring the taste of
their hometown to Arlington, Virginia with the opening of Memphis
Barbeque located at 320 South 23rd Street, Ste 50. The
father and son business partners are pleased to showcase authentic Memphis
barbeque. This family-owned operation will be a great addition to Crystal City.

Memphis Barbeque will feature a menu of barbecued meats, fish and shellfish. The famous Memphis Style Spare
Ribs are prepped either “wet” and basted with Memphis original Bar-B-Q sauce
or “dry” and prepared with a special sauce and dusted with a proprietary
rub. Guests can also choose a combination plate of ribs and either
Bar-B-Q Chicken, Pulled Pork Shoulder, Beef Brisket or Spicy Bar-B-Q
Shrimp. Plates are priced at $11-26. Entrée offerings from the sea
include Bar-B-Q North Atlantic Salmon, Spicy Bar-B-Q shrimp and the
Grilled Hickory Fish of the Day. Each entrée is served with the choice
of two sides and options include Buttermilk Battered Onion Rings, Baked
Four-Cheese Macaroni and Cheese, Barbeque Baked Beans and Creamy
Coleslaw.

A number of starters like Pulled Pork Eggrolls (these are really good!), soups
and salads including Bluff City Chili and Beef Brisket with Mixed
Greens, Roasted Tomatoes, Candied Spiced Pecans and Panko Crusted Goat
Cheese are also offered ranging in price from $9-$12. Sandwiches are
served with one side as yet another option. Choices include the vegetarian
Veggie sandwich made with marinated and grilled Portobello mushrooms, roasted
tomatoes, peppers, Montrachet cheese and basil-pesto mayo and the Pulled
Pork Sandwich made with meat smoked in-house for 20 hours. For those
who still have room, enticing desserts including the Blondie Brownie Sundae
(Yum!) are also available and are priced from $8-$9.
